VYDEX – GREAT BRITISH MANUFACTURERS

We are committed to the highest standards of product excellence through good manufacturing processes. The VYDEX philosophy ensures that the raw materials that go into our products are of the highest quality which we know is of vital importance to our consumers.

VYDEX has developed its own unique HACCP process (a HACCP system is an internationally recognised system originally designed as a control system with NASA to ensure food safety for the first manned space missions) which allows us to ensure that we never compromise quality and that we follow the highest industry standards.

Does your current manufacturer hold all these accreditations?

BRC CERTIFICATION

We are also certified by the BRC (British Retail Consortium), the global standard for food safety, ensuring that our quality management programmes are operating successfully. The BRC standard brings the additional confidence that high product safety issues are met, allowing us to ensure that the products we manufacture are consistently made safely and to the highest quality.

GMP ACCREDITATION

Our GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) certification ensures we operate to the highest levels of quality and hygiene standards. GMP covers all aspects of production from raw materials, premises and equipment to the training and personal hygiene of staff. We have systems to provide documented proof that correct procedures are consistently followed at every step.

ISO CERTIFICATION

Our internationally recognised ISO 9001 certification ensures that our manufacturing production is safe and effective, allowing for effective controls and procedures for purchasing raw materials in a way that ensures identification, traceability and preservation of product. We constantly monitor and measure our systems so that our products and services consistently meet customer requirements.

HALAL ACCREDITATION

VYDEX is also accredited by the HFA (Halal Food Authority) which promotes adherence to food safety, food hygiene and quality in compliance with UK laws and within the teachings of the Islamic jurisprudence and faith.

We have the ability to produce Informed-Sport certified products. Informed-Sport is a quality assurance programme which certifies that all nutritional supplements and/or ingredients that bear the Informed-Sport logo have been tested for banned substances by the world class sports anti-doping lab, LGC.

INDEPENDENT TESTING

Our procedures are audited four times each year to ensure that we maintain our services to the highest standards. Testing of raw materials is carried out on our behalf by the independent laboratory, ALS Food and Pharmaceutical, to ensure the materials for our products meet required specifications.
